ONLY & ALWAYS with JYJ. 오직 JYJ와 함께 합니다.

Archive for April 9th, 2011

From JYJ3: Those with the elementary knowledge of Korean know that Korean is quite difficult to translate into English. The method of constructing sentences is completely different. Korean-to-English translation inevitably loses something in translation. That is heartbreaking to us, because we wish that the English-speaking fans can also experience these lyrics fully-preserved.

The difficulties of translating are compounded when the composition is sophisticated, nuanced, poetic. That is the case with JYJ’s In Heaven. It is beautiful, nuanced, different every time you read. Since it is also a song with special significance to Jaejoong (http://wp.me/p1gQsC-2A1), we did our best to do it justice. We hope you enjoy.

~Narration~

女 ＹＣ

가지마 내 곁에 있어줄 수는 없겠니

다 거짓말 전혀 들리지가 않아

아니야 사랑해 한 마디 들려줄 수 있겠니

사랑해 또 다시 사랑해 주겠니

Narration:

Woman: Don’t go YC: Can’t you stay by my side?

Woman: Everything, a lie. YC: Everything, I can’t hear.

Woman: No, I love you. YC: Can you let me hear (just) one word?

Woman: I love you YC: Will you love me once more?

ＪＪ 지금 와서 말할 수도 없어 ・ 너의 기적 그 모든 게 허상 같아

마지막 그 모습도 서서히 기억 속에만 잠겨져 가는 것만 같아

JJ: I can’t say them now, now that we’re here (T/N: temporal)

Your miracle, those everything seem a phantom

Even the last images of you, they seem to sink slowly into memories.

YC 어딘가에서 날 보고있을까 ・ 후회해도 늦어버려 볼 수 없어

YCJS 추억의 그림자에 촉촉한 내 눈물만 그 자릴 지켜보고 있어

JJ 난 못해 정말 못해 ・ 니가 내 곁에 있을 때 만큼

미안한데 그게 안돼 ・ 이젠 모든 게 떨려와

YC: Would you be looking at me from somewhere,

Even if there is regret, you can’t see… it’s too late.

YC/JS: The wet tears of mine of the shadows of the past are the only ones gazing at that place.

JJ: I can’t, I really can’t. As much as when you were by my side.

I’m sorry, but that, I can’t. Now, everything comes, trembling.

JS 조금 더 기다리다 ・ 꿈 속을 헤매이다 (～헤매이다～)

결국 니 안에서 눈을 감을까봐

JS: While waiting a bit more, while searching blindly in the dream (~while searching)

(I am afraid) that I may end up, in the end, closing my eyes inside you.

ＪＪＪＳ 가지마 떠나지마 (ＹＣ) 내 곁에 있어줄 수는 없니

ＪＪＪＳ 거짓말 다 거짓말 (ＪＪ) 전혀 들리지 않아

ＪＳＹＣ 사랑해 널 사랑해 (ＪＪ) 한 마디 보여줄 수는 없니

ＪＳＹＣ 사랑해 널 사랑해 (ＪＳ) 또 다시 사랑해 주겠니

JJ/JS: Don’t go, Don’t leave me; YC: Can’t you stay by my side

JJ/JS: Lies, all lies; JJ: Everything, I can’t hear

JS/YC: I love you, You, I love; JJ: Can’t you show me (just) one word

JS/YC: I love you, You, I love; JS: Will you love me once more

YC 벌써 이런 계절 지나왔어 ・ 너의 흔적 찾아봐도 지워졌어

YCJJ 마지막 니 기억도 눈물에 터널 속으로 잠겨져가는 것만 같아

JS 나는 몰래 꿈을 꿀래 ・ 네가 내 옆에 있지를 않아

이젠 갈게 이만 갈게 ・ 이젠 너의 길을 따라

YC: Already, we’ve passed a season as this one. Although I search for your traces, they are erased.

YC/JJ: Even your last memories, they seem to sink into the tunnel in tears.

JS: I will dream in secret. You are not by my side.

I am going to go, I will now go. Now, following your path.

JJ 끝없는 길을 따라 널 찾아 헤메이다 (～헤메이다～)

그녀를 잃고서 슬퍼만할까봐

JJ: While lost in searching for you, following the path without an end (~While lost in searching)

Jaejoong: yfrog.com/h4q34fu Holy~~moly! (T/N: In Korean, Jaejoong wrote 에그~~머니. “에그” is pronounced “Egg”. The term is an old-fashioned exclamation of surprise. Jaejoong is making a pun with the word “Egg.”)

Mr. Egg: @mjjeje Who is that??! You definitely won’t be able to crack the Egg hehe

Jaejoong: @elbowyeish Hyung, anyways, see you in Seoul~~^^

Mr. Egg: Lol do you guys think I would actually take a real picture of myself??!
